How to Dry-Clean Clothes?

To dry-clean your clothes at home, follow the steps below:

Hang your garment in an open, ventilated space to allow fresh air to circulate through it. This helps eliminate initial odors naturally. Ideally, place the garment outdoors or in a breezy room.

Lightly sprinkle a thin layer of baking soda over the garment to neutralize any strong, lingering odors, especially from sweat or prolonged storage. Allow it to sit for several hours or overnight, giving the baking soda time to absorb any odors from the fabric.

Once the baking soda has absorbed the odors, gently shake or brush it off. This step ensures there's no residue left on the garment. Let it air out for a few more hours to maximize freshness.

Using a steam washer or a dryer with a steam function is ideal for refreshing fabrics; that steam gently removes light wrinkles and odors without wetting the fabric too much, preserving delicate fibers. Simply hang the garment in the dryer and use a gentle steam cycle, carefully monitoring to prevent excess moisture that could damage delicate fabrics.

The LG best dryer's Gentle Care cycle is perfect for delicate items, as it uses a low-heat setting to avoid shrinking and rough treatment. LG's DUAL Inverter Heat Pump™ technology adjusts the drying intensity to protect the fabric while being energy efficient.

Try Allergy Care and Sensor Dry Cycles

The Allergy Care cycle removes allergens like dust mites, making clothes feel fresher. The Sensor Dry feature adjusts drying time based on moisture levels, preventing over-drying and ensuring fabric integrity.

Once your garment is thoroughly dry, store it in a garment bag or breathable cover to protect it from dust, odors, and potential moisture damage. A garment bag with a zip closure is ideal for delicate and dry-clean-only fabrics.
